When it comes to landing a gig ... S.I. Swimsuit model Samantha Hoopes puts on an absolute clinic.

We got the audition tape she submitted to Carl's Jr. for the now classic 'Most American Thickburger' spot she did last year, and let's just say producers did NOT take long to snatch her up.

After seeing this video it's obvious why they just brought Hoopes back for a sequel.

Vida Guerra is worried someone's on her ass ... and she wants help from the LAPD to keep it safe.

According to our sources, the butt model filed a police report claiming she's been receiving emails from an obsessed fan. We're told the guy has been professing his love for her, making a full-court press for a happily ever after relationship.

Law enforcement sources tell us the LAPD doesn't feel the emails are particularly threatening ... just really creepy ... but they've opened an investigation just to be safe.

The host of that awesome (old) kids game show "Legends of the Hidden Temple" is on the verge of a comeback ... because he's in talks to cameo in the upcoming movie version of the show.

In case you didn't know ... producers are turning the classic Nickelodeon show into a movie -- which reportedly focuses on 3 siblings who embark on a crazy jungle adventure.

But to add to the nostalgia ... producers have reached out to the original host, Kirk Fogg, to make a cameo.

Since there is no game show element to the movie, we're told producers are scripting a part for Fogg that will pay homage to his duties on the '90s show.

And BONUS -- we're told Olmec, the talking Mayan head, will also get a role in the flick.

And remember the old team names?? The green monkeys, red jaguars and silver snakes?? We're told producers are also trying to find a way to incorporate those things into the movie too!

Sounds awesome ... just one question -- when's the 'Guts' movie???

C. Thomas Howell, aka Ponyboy from "The Outsiders," is getting divorced ... but he beat the odds in Hollywood because his marriage and partnership lasted nearly a quarter-century.

Howell's wife Sylvie filed the docs last month in L.A. Superior Court, citing the usual irreconcilable differences.

The couple has 3 kids ... one is 14 and the other 2 are adults. Sylvie's asking for physical custody but wants joint legal custody. She's also gunning for spousal support.

Tommy, who played The Reaper on "Criminal Minds," and Sylvia will fully communicate and co-parent their youngest son ... so promises his publicist, Jeff Ballard.

Tommy says, "We raised three beautiful children together ... I will always wish her the best and look forward to what the future holds for both of us."

Several LAPD officers offered one final salute to Nancy Reagan moments ago -- as a hearse presumably carrying her body left her Bel-Air home.

We say "presumably" because two hearses came to the house. Unclear if one was used as a decoy ... or if it was just backup in case one of the cars broke down.

As TMZ first reported, Reagan passed away of congestive heart failure. She was 94.

She'll be buried next to her husband at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley.

No word yet on when the funeral will take place.

Conor McGregor is summing up his loss to Nate Diaz in two words -- "Sh*t happens."

The Notorious CM took to social media after his bruising defeat at UFC 196 -- and hinted that he wants a rematch with the man who beat him up.

"Nate I will see you again."

He also took the opportunity to compare UFC fighters Jose Aldo and Rafael Dos Anjos to female genitalia:

"Aldo you are a p*ssy. Dos anjos you are a p*ssy. When the history books are written, I showed up. You showed up on Twitter."

Good news for fight fans ... the loss didn't seem to affect his confidence one bit.

Here's the statement in full:

"I stormed in and put it all on the line. I took a shot and missed. I will never apologize for taking a shot. Sh*t happens."

"I'll take this loss like a man. I will not shy away from it. I will not change who I am. If another champion goes up 2 weights let me know. If your tired of me talking money, take a nap. I'll still be here when you wake up with the highest PPV and the gate. Still talking multi 7's."

"Thank you to the true support and f*ck the hate that came out of the woodwork. I love it all. Its still steak for breakfast. I've been here many times in my life in some form or another. I'll eat it all and come back stronger."

"Aldo you are a p*ssy. Dos anjos you are a p*ssy. When the history books are written, I showed up. You showed up on Twitter.To the fans! Never ever shy away from challenges. Never run from adversity. Face yourself head on. Nate I will see you again."

Nancy Reagan's death was followed hours later by a spectacular rainbow over a Palm Springs golf course Ronald Reagan frequented ... a remarkable coincidence to say the least, since her Secret Service code name was "Rainbow."

TMZ broke the story ... the former first lady died Sunday of congestive heart failure at her Bel-Air home.

The tributes are pouring in from celebrities and everyday fans, but Mother Nature gave Nancy the ultimate prop.

Nancy Reagan's death has triggered a massive reaction from celebrities and everyday people who loved her.

Nancy Reagan has died ... TMZ has learned from a close family member.

The former first lady was living in Bel Air and has been in failing health in recent years. She died from congestive heart failure at her home.

Mrs. Reagan married Ronald in 1952 and went on to became a First Lady who at first was severely criticized for her fancy taste -- particularly in china -- but went on to become beloved, along with her husband.

She'll be buried next to her husband at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley.

Nancy was a former actress who starred in B movies, before meeting her future husband.

She was fiercely loyal to Ronald and extremely protective, often getting in his ear about White House staffers she thought were less than loyal.

Conor McGregor and Holly Holm were light on their feet at their UFC after parties in Vegas ... lighter because they weren't weighted down by their championship belts.

Conor was at Surrender Nightclub at the Encore hotel and stayed past 3:30 AM ... and it seemed he was feeling no pain, although he must have been after getting pounded into the ground by Nate Diaz.

As for Holly, she arrived at same party at around 2 AM and beelined it for the VIP section.

It's Donald Trump's dream ... proof that even a mass murderer like El Chapo can enter the U.S. illegally.

The drug lord's daughter claims her dad entered the U.S. not once but twice while he was on the run in late 2015.

According to Rosa Isela Guzman Ortiz, Chapo made stealth visits once to visit relatives and a second time to see her home.

Nate Diaz celebrated with his boyz Saturday night after beating Conor McGregor's ass ... and it looks like Nate went 5 rounds, not 2.

It's been a bad couple of months for reigning champs.

Zac Efron was put through the paces Saturday, wearing his signature not-much-at-all.

Zac's in Miami filming the "Baywatch" movie and it looks like next stop was the ocean, because he's wearing a patriotic Speedo under his shorts.

The knife buried on O.J. Simpson's former Rockingham estate may hold lots of secrets, but unlocking them may be next to impossible ... with one glimmer of hope.

We spoke with a number of forensic experts who say a knife secreted underground for 4 years is likely to become contaminated by bacteria, chemicals and various microorganisms in the dirt, making it extremely difficult to get meaningful results in DNA tests.

The experts add the natural elements pose an additional, significant obstacle to DNA tests.

Here's the glimmer of hope. We're told if the 5" buck knife was folded when it was buried, the blade might be sufficiently protected to net a DNA match.

As we reported, LAPD cops privately say they always believe O.J. used a folding buck knife to kill Ron and Nicole, even though testimony in the trial suggested a fixed blade did the job.

Michael Strahan, Vinny and Ja Rule were flabbergasted at Saturday's UFC dethroning.

The guys were leaving Bounce Sporting Club in NYC and just couldn't believe Conor McGregor and Holly Holm lost, but Ja Rule has an opinion on the real loser.
